neal in the case was served on the Sheriff.
The appeal, under the new law, is made di-
rectly to the highest court. and final decision
will be reached much more quickly than under
the old method of procedure.
! Exactly what caused the dcplorable accident
in Jamaica Bay ON Sunday will probably never
be known One theory is that the boat, which
was undoubtedly carrying too much sail, came
about too quickly when lacking and was caught
by a souall while others claim that her centre
board struck on a sandbar and caused her TO
capsze in the stiff wind. In any case. the boat
appears to have been badly handled; she
certainly was overloaded and insuffciently
manned. The captain, lad of nine, and
blind man are clearly an inadequate crew to
take in charge forty or more pleasure-seekers.
All three lost their lives, along with more than
score of the passengers and OF course can
give no explanation of the mishap.
If Mr.. Edmund Yates is right, the feature
of the review at Aldershot was the fine per-
Torrance of the Volunteers. Many of them
had been travelling all night, and yet their
marching and drilling were almost perfection.
Two other topics that will attract special at
tention arc referred to by Mr.. Yates in his
letter in another column. One is the probable
retirement of Lord Londonderry. who. it seems
likely, will not administer the Crimes Act. and
in connection with this some talk about his
successor is given. Another is the statement
that one of the new peers is eighty-two years
old; which shows that those who are looking
for honoY in this line need not despair II
they have to wait until old age.
Queen Kapiolani and her attendants are dis
posed to make light of the revolution in
Hawaii. They do not even call it revolu-
ton. but soften it down to a q difficulty they
declare that the change in the Ministry IS such
as has happened repeatedly before. and is nc
more revolutionary in character than the over
throw of one government in England and the
summoning of new Prime Minister. 1t is
&. true, as they say that only one side Of the
matter has yet been heard. but there. is no
reason for doubling the truth of the report
brought by che Mariposa. There has been o
popular uprising, King Kalakaua has been bad
ly frightened. new Ministry has been formed
and the former Prime Minister has been ar
rested. Later news will be awaited with some
interest. and speculation will concern Itself
with tho possible outcome and the ultimate
disposition of the Sandwich Islands.
The trouble on the Brooklyn Elevated Rail
road appears to have been aggravated by un
